A5Ⅱ Series

 

A5ⅡEシリーズ

 

Realizes quick and accurate movement. Fast response & High-precision positioning

Adopted New Algorithm “Two-degree-of-freedom control”(2DOF) to improve productivity and machining accuracy.
In the conventional model, because we could not adjustseparately feedforward control and feedback controls, in other words even if we only adjust “Approach” of feedforward, it had connection with “Settling” of feedback control, mutual adjustment was required.

 

In 2DOF adopted A5Ⅱ series,feedforward and feedback controls are adjusted separately, meaning
"Approach" reaction to the given command, and the "Settling" can be adjusted separately.
Realized low vibration and reduction of settling time.
Realizes tact speed of the electronic component mounting machines, improves the accuracy of surface treatment of
metal processing machines, allows for smooth operation and High speed industrial robots.
